About Goldie

Meet Goldie! Goldie is a charming 7-month-old Chihuahua mix eagerly seeking her forever home after her owner's passing. Weighing in at just 5 lbs, she packs a lively personality into her tiny frame. While she may initially be a bit shy, a little patience reveals a happy, curious, and playful companion. Goldie's favorite activities include following her foster mom around the house, curling up on the couch for a Netflix binge, and exploring local parks. She adores finding the coziest blankets for naptime and enjoys playful chases with her foster sister. Once comfortable, she becomes friendly with other dogs, seamlessly transitioning from playful antics to sweet snuggles. Currently, Goldie is mastering leash walking and loves to prance around the neighborhood, showing her excitement with little leaps. She is also working on crate training and potty habits. Goldie truly cherishes being close to her humans, believing that that's where she belongs. A friendly dog companion could enhance her confidence, but her heart belongs to her people. If you're in search of a tiny, affectionate shadow who will eagerly accompany you everywhere, Goldie could be your perfect match! She will be vaccinated, spayed, and microchipped. Her adoption fee is $525. They’re ready to love you; are you ready to apply?
